Some one generated a posting about the project.
Maybe more details should be provided on why we are spending so much on this project.

My question is whether the admin is spending the funds wisely on the residents instead of wasting them on some useless fancy project.

I just discovered some cans DO NOT work & can't be recycled

Don't think its the machine's fault cos cannot be 3 different machines are faulty when it seems to.work.for other cans etc

I think its manufacturer's fault
Probably printed something wrongly despite it having the 10 cents logo

I compared. The logo seems.smaller
Or maybe all bottles the manufacturer did are F up

So those who paid extra 10 cents gets screwed
Whats the government going.to.do about it?

Like it or not, the deposit fund likely going into millions already.

And if you or me dont return and collect back that $0.10. These money likely go into those who come up with this idea and more.

Just love it and start a business to profit from the fund.

Start a business to collect from those machine. Employ lots of foreign workers. Monopolize the market. Huat.

How to QC?

Anyway machine says barcode is damaged etc
Uh ..... no. Looks totally fine
Cannot say cos its dented so not working cos not dented
I even washed it cos ... washing is free

Totally cannot work

Like I said the logo looks small and off compared to others

So maybe all the bottles done by them is off and cannot claim?

I already created a thread ages ago but probably merged

This will make it a default for Singaporeans.to hunt for cans and bottles

Last Thursday I tried successfully refund and I used my Ezlink card for the refund of the $0.10. However when I checked my card transcation on simple Go app. It didn't show the refund of the $0.10 lor.

Today I go try again.

Funny I have return the bottles for 3 continues day but my simplygo apps which show my ezlink card transcation up to 12/8/26 never show last friday and Wednesday top up of the $0.10.

Am I being conned????

They created a beast.
And we are footing the bill for this rubbish.
End up they have no money to spend on the peasants cos they spend the money on these t r a s h.

The irony is they can save the forest instead of spending millions on their sec school project.
